Located in one of Missoula's most beloved neighborhoods just blocks from the University of Montana, this 1933 charmer has been thoughtfully updated and lovingly maintained without losing an ounce of its original character. An enclosed front entry welcomes you in, offering protection from the elements as you step inside. From there, the home's warmth is unmistakable, with stunning craftsmanship on display throughout, original architectural details, rich wood floors, and light filled rooms blending seamlessly with modern comforts. Inside, the main level offers easy, flowing living with a fireplace warmed living room, a well-appointed kitchen featuring warm cork flooring, a tile backsplash, and a gas range, and a dedicated dining room with beautiful wood floors. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main floor, all finished with the kind of craftsmanship you just don't find in newer construction. The primary bathroom is outfitted with heated flooring for an extra touch of comfort, a skylight brings in beautiful natural light, and gorgeous wood floors carry the home's character from room to room. Upstairs, a second level loft offers flexible bonus space complete with built in bookshelves and cozy bench seating, perfect for a reading nook or additional living area. The finished basement expands the home's footprint further with an additional bedroom currently used as a family room, a second kitchen, a full bathroom, and abundant storage. With its own private entry located next to the garage, the basement level would make a wonderful mother-in-law suite or potential rental opportunity. Step outside and discover a private, beautifully landscaped oasis wrapped in mature trees and greenery, complete with underground sprinklers and a smooth wire and wood fence for added privacy. Unwind on the covered back deck or take in the peaceful surroundings from the upper balcony overlooking the yard, a rare and tranquil retreat in the heart of the city. An attached single car garage and level, landscaped grounds round out the exterior. Location is everything here, and this address delivers. You're just steps from Grizzly Grocery for everyday essentials, a neighborhood delicatessen for a quick bite, nearby schools, and beloved Bonner Park. Hop on your bike or take a short stroll to the Hip Strip's restaurants and shops or continue on to Downtown Missoula for the full experience of everything this vibrant city has to offer. Whether you're drawn to the walkable, University adjacent lifestyle or simply want a historic home with soul in an unbeatable location, 125 McLeod Avenue is a rare find.
